Icon14 Milgauss Club Photo Boutique

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen. I thought it was time to showcase for everybody in what my opinion is the most photogenic Rolex out there. A chance for our fellow Club Milgauss folks to showcase their best photos of their Milgauss or in some cases for some their Milgauss's. I know someone's got vintage out there too. Dont be shy folks. Lets see the Millies
I'll start. Got it about 3 months ago. LOVE IT!
Thanks
Dan
P.S I thought id put my Tudor into the mix too for size comparisons

Recycled photos but I love her just the same. Only problem with my Millie is that my wife won't stop wearing it.

A follow-up...

My wife gave me the GREEN light to get a GV. I better start socking some bucks away. Looks like my Glashutte Senator Meissen will be delayed a bit

It doesn't get the wrist time that others do, but it is my Go-To watch for dressing up. My Expy gets the daily beating. But now, if I were to add a GV to the mix, it would probably be my daily wearer!

I was at the Oakridge Mall last month I saw the AD had a GV on display, I went inside and ask the girl how much for the GV Milgauss? She told me 11K plus tax ??? I said thanks and walk right out.

I was in Brisbane yesterday, I went into the AD and asked about the GV Milgauss. They reply I got was that 'the boss' deals with that model I lost interest at that point.

I think if I am asking the Boss he or she will not come up with 11K
Only the sales rep. will try to sell for more to top up their commission

montecristo is total BULLSH!T, everything is WAYYYY over MSRP there. I would go to Brinkhaus on georgia St, I think they got one at 11% off msrp.
If only you could go to HK there's some real discounts . I got 18% off mine with the customary no tax
